Synopsis

This book is a how-to-do booklet. The geometric problems have the answers to each max and min solution. The high school and community college student should verify each solution by using values before and after that are close to the answers. A knowledge of only algebra avoids the use of calculus. This approach shows how algebraic formulae can be created. The use of a dimensionless multiplier is the way to avoid the use of calculus. The number of calculations is made easier with the use of a programmable calculator or a computer using some programmable language.

About the Author

Here is a timeline of my experience. B.S. in General Engineering in 1955 from Trinity College in Hartford .Ct. U.S. Army from 1955 to 1957(Nike Guided Missile Analyst). Engineer from 1957 to 1958. Master's Degree from University of Connecticut in 1960. Engineer from 1960 to 1961. Technical College teaching from 1961 to 1963. Engineer from 1963 to 1964. Technical College teaching from 1964 to 1995. Tutoring for free from 1995 to the present time. I love to identify the student's weakness and help them get rid of it. My next writing will entail doing max and min problems using only arithmetic.
